Backporch Drafthouse

I really enjoyed the Creamy Avocado Wrap and my kids liked the fried pickles and fish tacos. We got here just a at opening so there was plenty of seating. It filled pretty quickly after that so it's definitely a popular place. The service was great and they have a large menu to choose from. We realized not everything available online is listed on the menus they gave us so be sure to ask because our server told us you can still get several of those missing items as long as they have everything needed to make it. It's worth a visit.

The fried pickles were incredibly salty. Boneless chicken wings were filled with all white meat, it’s an appetizer that eats like a meal. The breading wasn’t obnoxious either. Service was fine. Lots of TVs to watch games on. I found their Buffalo sauce hotter than other places with can be a positive thing if you like spicy sauce.

Came in a big group and our waitress did so amazing! Other staff were helpful as well and made the experience very enjoyable. The food is good but could be great if it was hot rather than lukewarm. I had gotten the frito pie with brisket and wish I got one of those delicious burgers instead… anyways thanks for having me and my family!

Experience started with Anna! She was super sweet and informative about the menu as well as the amazing cocktails. The strawberry jalapeño margarita was amazing. We ordered the Nashville Hot sliders which were amazing. We both had burgers . I had a gluten free bun and it was the best one I’ve ever had. It did not crumble like gluten free buns usually do. Highly recommend the jalapeño popper burger! Thank you Anna for making our lunch date awesome. 👏

Food was below average. Potato chips were unbearably salty. Salt was visibly sticking to the chips like it was fully dipped. I dusted them off on napkin to make it somewhat edible. Coleslaw was not fresh, was brown color and tasted weird, I did not take a second bite. Cocktails were okay, it felt watered down, but tasty to drink. The burger was not that good, but the patty itself was juicy and flavorful. Service was good and the place was quite nice and clean. Nice dining area and ambience was uplifting. Regardless, I would not recommend this place.

Food was great! Service was great. Clean but too noisy for conversation.

Food was delicious and the service was fantastic. It's a too loud to have a conversation.

Nice restaurant, our waitress was nice, we went for our sons 18th birthday.

First time visiting, the staff was great and so was the food. I ordered the Southern chicken salad and BP michelada it was delicious.

Came to Lawton Oklahoma for work and stopped into this place. I was immediately seated and the waitress staff was very friendly. The restaurant was clean had nice music painting in the background and he was able to watch the game at this bar. I ordered a burger and fries With bacon jam and it was pretty good and I also ordered a brownie sundae which was amazing.

Amazing food, amazing service. Avery was so great! Gave great recommendations. Loved the French dip.

We are regulars and were asked to leave tonight. We are white and the night manager is black. I went to the bathroom and when I came back my girlfriend said the manager said we had to leave. When I asked why she said she would call the police if I didn't leave. Probably won't be back.

Ashton is the best server ever! She's so friendly and was constantly asking if we were okay. Will definitely be coming back!

The bartender, Mercedes made me the most amazing margarita I've ever had, and our server Anna had the vibes set as soon as we walked in with her bubbly, friendly personality. Food was good. Environment was top tier. I'll be coming back :)

We were really looking forward to trying Back Porch Draft House, but unfortunately, our experience fell far short of expectations. Our server, Brooklyn, was inattentive and surprisingly rude throughout the visit. From the moment we sat down, it felt like we were a bother rather than guests. There was little to no engagement, and rushed service, and an overall lack of professionalism that made us question if we were on a hidden camera show. Customer service is a big part of the dining experience, and sadly, this visit missed the mark entirely. I hope this feedback helps the management team improve staff training and guest care in the future.

The back porches ac sucks if they charge what charge in a place where the working man comes to relax the least they can do is make sure the ac works I came in and was literally sweating 12 bucks for a salad it's good but but had to ask for napkins to dry my sweat off fuck is this Kenya

Visited Back Porch for the first time yesterday and had an amazing experience. I got the sliders and they were absolutely delicious 10/10!! My waiter named Bianca was mature, professional and was attentive to our needs. She had a youthful and bubbly personality. Highly recommend this place!

Good beer and good service. The burger was very greasy so hard to really taste the whiskey bbq

Leila was so personal and recommended great drinks and food! First time here and will definitely come back to just see her!

We had the friendliest waitress Amy! She was in point in everything! You can tell she likes her job by her attitude! Ask for Amy the next time you visit Backporch! Food and drinks are yummy too!

The Ruben was very good. Alittle spicy and the fries were seasoned good. Good bar food.

I like this place, food is pretty consistent and there is always friendly staff to make it a happy place. I prefer lunch and dinner, breakfast can be hit or miss. I have only tried a couple times and I found the breakfast food lacking that grandmas feel. Of course it's just an opinion. The ambiance can be a little tight for comfort. Where I have set, the bar is the best but the table arrangement is I little close for comfort. Again, my opinion.

After driving around Lawton trying to find a hometown restaurant we had to settle on a chain brewery. It was a bad experience. I had the kids burger meal. The meat was delicious on the burger. My friend enjoyed her French dip. The local beer kochendorfer light lager was perfect on a hot summer day. Speedy attentive service. I would come back.

Everything was delicious. Point blank. Fries cheesy but also still crispy. Hot wings hot and packed with flavor. The burger had 2 different sauces that went together perfectly.

I'll be coming to the back porch for over seven years and they took the double wide off the menu was $14! I just paid $21 had no idea was gone stuck with a huge bill you lost a customer this is pathetic

Our food was so great! So was our waitress and we had the best time! Anna was so nice, funny and we never had to wait for her because We were checked on often

This place is great. The bartenders and waitresses are great. The food and service is top notch. I would definitely recommend it.

We really enjoy stopping in, sitting on the patio, having a cold beer, hot food and great service. We can sit outside with our golden retrievers. They bring our boys a water bowl with ice water.

Mercedes is the best bartender, make sure you sit at the bar to get her! Love the environment!! wish they had potato spuds on the menu!!

Mercedes is ranked number two bartender. lol. However this place is great and I love all the bartenders. It just boils down to being respectable to them and you'll get great service. They enjoy the regulars.

Mercedes is an amazing bartender very respectful and always greet you when you come in the food is absolutely amazing but if we can fix the ac lol it would be great for them in this heat! Overall love it!

Everything is awesome about this place. Servers are professional and always get orders correct. No other place in Lawton or surrounding areas has been able to get my order of rum and coke right. It's a bit noisy, but food and service make up for it. Also, last time we were there they couldn't put the OU softball game on one of the tvs in the eating area when we requested it. Small things, but still a great place for food and Friday's catfish special!

Great food, wonderful service and nice atmosphere. Had fun visiting my friends in Lawton.

Amazing place to hangout and Mercedes is awesome. She is always smiling and has a great personality, she is number one behind the bar and number one in our hearts. But then again all the bartenders are amazing as well so atmosphere is always great.

Service was friendly and some of the food was good. Was disappointed in the beer menu, we expected more since it's a drafthouse. I know it's rural Oklahoma, but families visit from all over for graduation, I expected a vegetarian option. It's not hard to carry some veggie burgers in the freezer. My husband and our son ate well though.

My daughter and I have been all day in the city and we were on our way back to Lawton and decided to order takeout from back porch Drafthouse when we finally got home we were too tired to eat I got up today and ate mine for lunch and I just wanted to say that the food was just as delicious today as it is what it's first made. the cooks are excellent. I'm please relate to Cooks if they're boneless unloaded wings are to die for. great experience every time I go there. The girls are also super sweet but like I said the cooks are excellent at their job

My boyfriend and I decided to give this a try our first night in Lawton, visiting from California for a wedding. Living in the Bay Area, we have access to some pretty good food options. I really wasn't expecting much from the restaurants in this small town but I was wrong Our server Carrie was so sweet and attentive. She answered all of our questions about the menu very throughly and checked on us frequently. To share we had the classic wings and so Gouda Mac and cheese bites. I ordered the OG Burger + fries and my partner got the Kraken Burger+ BP slaw. To drink we tried the strawberry jalapeño margarita and the frozen vodka Red Bull. The drinks and food were great! We enjoyed the wings so much we came back again the next day to have the boneless wings. Such a perfect ratio of fried crunchiness with great sauce flavors. I'm currently savoring my leftover wings in my hotel. We don't drink beer but it is a drafthouse and the draft beer menu was pretty extensive! Over all I really enjoyed eating here both times! It seems like a really fun restaurant to eat with friends if I lived here.

Good food great staff. My weekly go to spot!!!!. Every time I go there it is spot on and does not take forever. The staff is the reason we....I continue to come back again and again.

Food is good , service wasn't the best but really nice to have my order correct. Kind of Expensive

After a long day hiking at Mt. Scott in Lawton, OK, I and a group of friends were searching for a sit-down restaurant open after 9 p.m. We came upon the Backporch Drafthouse via an internet search and decided to give it a try. First Impression: The prices were not cheap and not expensive. They were accommodating when we called and asked to hold a table of four. When we arrived, the place wasn't very busy. However, there is a second location in Lawton. Be aware of the second location if you're having friends meet you. The staff is friendly and the restaurant was clean. Appetizers: We ordered the "Crispy Fried Pickles" and the "So Gooda Mac & Cheese Bites". You would expect the fried pickles (sliced pickle rounds deep fried in batter and served with ranch dressing). They were hot and fresh. The Mac & Cheese bites were AMAZING! If you like mozzarella cheese sticks, this is a way better alternative. They came out hot and fresh, the smoked gouda was just the right amount, and they were also served with ranch dressing. Meals: I ordered the T-BAM and it was pretty good. This is a safe choice if you want a club-style sandwich with a few extra options. The fries were decent as well. Everything was served at the proper temperature. Not so good: A friend ordered a house salad with the vinaigrette dressing. I tried a bit of it and it wasn't what I would expect of a vinaigrette. It was savory and not sweet. It had a unique taste, but it would be something I would dip a poor-tasting piece of steak into. I would stick with the traditional dressings. We had to ask the server for refills (but we were also dehydrated from the hike). We all drank soda or water and did not sample alcoholic beverages. Overall: I would each here again. However, know which location you're at. If you don't want a huge crowd, this is probably your best best. This is pub/sports bar food with an elevated approach. The restaurant is clean. The food is served fresh (at this location). The service was good. The servers were friendly.

Food was terrible. Burgers are just frozen patties, fries are just frozen from the bag and hard and bland. It was about as cheap of ingredients as you could get and there were flies everywhere. Braums is much better compared to here.

Mid food I went here because it was in Texas good service and alright ambiance it was average I wouldn't say it was better than one in Chicago or at.louis or Oklahoma

First time here. Leila is awesome!!! Good service! Good salad and drinks.. will come back here again

K is the best. Yummy food but superior service. The ladies are what make the Backporch!!

Emma was an amazing server she was so sweet and she has the prettiest green eyes. I had the French dip with sirloin which was delicious and chased it with an Irish mule.

My family and I are visiting Lawton this week to watch my brother graduate basic training for the army. We came to back porch because my brother was craving a really good burger since the bootcamp food is basic. Food looked decent but it made my whole family very sick. We all had nausea and the runs, bad. - talk about back porch alright, maybe that's why it's in the name. My mom ordered the Fish and Chips (didn't even get a burger) and could not stop being sick from both ends! Even during the Army ceremony. This one meal literally ruined our trip. Do NOT eat here. We knew it was this place because it was the only place we went out to eat before feeling like this. 3/4 family members are still not feeling well a day later. Thanks for the food poisoning back porch.

Just passing through and wanted something local. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere is a sports bar. Not too big but not too small. The Okie Ruben is a great idea for adding jalapeños but it was too salty to finish. I really wanted to love it but it broke my heart. Based on the crowd I must of gotten that 1 in a 100 bad sandwich. If I come back this way I think I would give it another shot.

Excellent Burgers and wings Great staff and love the Happy hour A must go if your in the area

Not many places open after 10pm in Lawton but we were hungry after a baseball game and found the Backporch. Upon entering it looks like a bar but we were surprised by the menu options and the taste of the food. Shrimp tacos were the special and they were delicious. Also order wings, patty melt and the jalapeño burger-all were good! Crispy fries made the meal complete. Our service was very friendly and made great recommendations!

I've ate at Backporch plenty of time over the years! The menu is excellent and always love to here the specials of the month! I have always preferred the Gore location as the ladies always run a tight ship here and service is always great! The drinks are great and all the burgers are great! The killer queso is to die for!! The chicken strips are the best a restaurant can offer! Wishing they would bring the fried green beans as a permanent item!! The U shape bar is great and have plenty of games playing at all times!

Love their food. Love the variety. The atmosphere is good as well. I like their food combos and they have good drinks as well.

food is decent but Mercedes is such a good bartender!! we love her every time we come in here!!! she makes us laugh & her contagious personality & smiles are always there. would recommend to anyone that comes to Lawton!! Clearly, just for Mercedes but food is good too.

Still very much enjoy this places food, cold beer, and friendly bar staff. Some of the best items chicken Philly, Asian wings (bone in or boneless), patty melt, any of the salads, the burgers can't go wrong with them. Also ask for the monthly special & Fridays is always catfish which is amazing comes with fries and hush puppies.

Really REALOY enjoyed our food and atmosphere here. Not quite as party as the other location but food was amazing. We really enjoyed the chips and salsa. Definitely a place at the top of our restaurant list here in Lawton!

Great service. Delicious food. Would recommend! I came here with my family on Family Day prior to basic training graduation and what a great experience. If I was ever in the area I would know where to go. Very pleased. So happy I didn't waste my day out on mediocre food. I got the Buffalo chicken salad and it was amazing. However the star of the show was the soft pretzel with queso and the fried mushrooms. I burnt my mouth eating those and it was worth it.

This was my first time here and I had an excellent service experience. My party arrived on a Friday eve and the place was packed. Lawton has really grown over the past years and good places fill up quickly on Friday nights. We were greeted by a hostess named Sharmaine who nicely explained that they were full, but she would be happy to walk around and see if she could identify any tables that might be leaving soon. We were going to just go somewhere else, but Sharmaine sweetly insisted that she'd look around first since most nicer/cool Lawton spots would be full at that time. Sharmaine came back and told us that if we'd be willing to wait about 10 minutes, she could seat our entire party (7 ladies). While we waited, Sharmaine chatted with us and was the perfect hostess. She was actually able to seat us at a large, clean table in under 10 minutes. Right off the bat, Sharmaine had already earned this spot a Yelp star Our waitress was a young lady named Mercedes and she was equally customer centric. Our group of ladies wasn't a "fussy" bunch, but since this was our first time here, we had lots of questions which Mercedes answered expertly. We began with cocktails. I'm not a huge fan of margaritas, but Backporch could make me one. The cucumber jalapeno margarita was the perfect balance of cool & spicy. I also tasted the "perfect margarita" and must admit that it was darn near perfect, but a tad too sweet for me. Now on to the food - I strongly suggest a burger! Their menu has a large section of "Craft Burgers," and yes indeed, they are craft burgers. I got the Kraken burger with sweet potato fries. That burger was simply stupendous. I usually don't like a lot of toppings on burgers, but this one was well seasoned and balanced with flavors - spicy, salty, sweet, sour, umami.......wowzers. My only complaint was that the gigantic onion ring on my burger was not quite fried to perfection ----- yes, I'm a persnickety burger snob. LOL! The sweet potato waffle fries were the best I've ever had. They were cut thinner than usual so they crisped up beautifully. All 7 of us ladies enjoyed our food and cocktails. Mercedes checked on us regularly, and even Sharmaine (hostess) came back to ensure that we were enjoying our visit. Kudos to them for going the extra mile on customer service. The restaurant has a laid back, upscale sports bar ambiance. They offer an extensive craft beer and cocktail list, as well as weekend brunch. There are lots of TV screens around for watching sports, so it's pretty loud inside, but has a cool vibe and attracts a diverse crowd. This spot is definitely going on my favorite list of places to eat in Lawton

I would have rated this place a 5 stars but the service was weird, the fries were cold, and one of the waitresses forgot to bring out my dipping sauce. I'm a bit of a burger snob, but I have to admit that they have a good quality burger. I had the Legend burger and subbed the Swiss and American pieces of cheese for cheddar. I hate when a burger has a lot of add-ons but the meat is bland and gets over-shadowed, this was NOT the case with this burger. The meat was well seasoned and the bacon was thick and crispy! All the elements of the burger played well together and I wouldn't hesitate to come back again. I would probably rate the burger about an 8.5 out of 10. Let's talk about the service. I was seated by a hostess. Then a server took and delivered my drink order (a water). Next my actual waitress came and took my food order. Then a FOURTH server delivered the food. I asked the fourth server for dipping sauce and I sat there and waited, and waited, and waited some more. I can't eat burgers and fries without ranch! Finally my waitress came and I ask her for my precious ranch. Then towards the end of my meal a FIFTH waitress stopped by the table to see if I needed anything. ‍ The fries were good but they were cold when they arrived to the table and after waiting for ranch they obviously only got worse. I had the waitress bring fresh fries and they were really good. I'm not sure if they were fresh cut fries, but I would definitely say they were above average, seasoned well and had good flavor overall. The venue setup is nice and they have a LOT of TVs which I like quite a bit. Also, they have a good selection of beer.
